Todays post is jam packed and hella exciting!
I plan to play heavy cards on you today.
Covering our first wikid emcee,
War Bandit is no stranger to the hip hop community.
Unfamiliar systems exceptionally talented Tshepo Chaka's got...
"the deadliest flow/
when I spit your brain will explode/ i'm ripping in codes/
when offstage I'm (still) killin' a show"...quoted off the last verse on loose cannon.
Under the radar!!
*progressed onto emceeing after seeing he's got the potential to murk most kats on the scene at the time.
*started out jamming Aesop Rock, El-P, the deff jux movement and yfm's rap activity.
* Creatively inspired by Hymphatic Tabz, Blazing Spear,K1 fam,Kenny Majozi and Krook'd the warmonger.
*has worked with artists Fudge Defugitive, Blaq faith, Page, Morse code, Red button, Siya Shezi,and Ntsiki from the soil.
War Bandits loose cannon music video
(click on the link of the music video to be redirected to youtube)
Shot at a popular cypha spot in Protea Glenn, the video is certainly 1 up the crowd, reflecting a true depiction of the actual culture and local scene War Bandit is a product of..
After being asked about his writing process, His creative spots started showing. Quoted saying "I'm just a dude with voices in his head..W.A.R Bandit happens to be one of the dominant ones.. There is a HUGE difference between Tshepo Chaka and W.A.R Bandit"
He further explains these inspirational voices with, "The are many voices..The more dominant voices would be W.A.R Bandit,Duke Ironlungz,MidKnight Walker,Number 5 tha Defender and F@1 amongst others, theres a different voice for a specific style and mood of wriiting. Eg. W.A.R Bandit would be for the more battle focused scripts and MidKnight Walker would be for the more laid back conscious scripts.
1.) the word play, alliteration, flow and delivery
on loose cannon is wiiiiikid!!
it jus smoothes you into the frist verse so magically..
how long did it take you to perfect your craft? its so
friggin well groomed.
WarBandit:
I'm very fussy about my writing and picking beats..But it also depends on a whole lot of other things
like the mood of the beat and where it takes me
Nutzaboutrap:
2.)is there a tape coming out? n when can weexpect it?
WarBandit:
Yes the is a tape coming out. UnfortunatelyI can not put a date to it as yet but this year definitely.
Its Called "Anti-Gravity".. SpeeKa did most of the production.
Also worked with Blaq Faith,Morse Kode,Page,Red Button
and Masta.. Artists I worked with include Siya Shezi, Fudge da Fugitive,
Ntsika (The Soil), Bles.Sing, Ma7 and a lot more.
Nutzaboutrap:
3.)what words would u like to give to the heads out there that aspire to reach the level that u are at creatively in what they do?WarBandit:
Let passion drive you. It becomes easier to do what you do honestly.. Yeah the is going to be some business issues and stuff. But let the passion keep you going.. Start at the begining and make your way up. That way you know the in's and out's of the game u r in. From the cypher to the big stage!!!Nutzaboutrap:
4.)tell us a bit more about unfamiliar systems.WarBandit:
Unfam is a crew started by Blaq Faith and Vice tha 13th..its a collective of some of thee most talented individuals out there. Raging from production to emceeing to poetry.. Its very hard to describe the entity that is Unfamilia Systemz.its just a collective of creatives who just love what they do and the do it very wellPulse ink. Productions, Unfam Forever, Imaginary Friendz world wide. Oh ja...and stay Crook or Die!!
The loose cannon music video:
A pulse ink and fossil age TV collaboration
Produced by Speeka
Directed, shot and edited by Casper Writtens
After speaking to Phakiso Mokoena about the video project
(member of unfamiliar systems network, and Fossil age TV rep) who later directed me to WarBandit himself for a direct interview, I also got a
small list of the members of unfamiliar systems to go hunt them down and source up some more amazing hip hop creatives and their material and see who else we are bringing under the Nut radar!
great thanks and appreciation to Fossil age Tv, Pulse ink and unfamiliar systems.Keep keeping on!!!
War Bandit as a Nut?!
as far as all my writings are concerned, I have used the term NUT to describe an above average, extra-ordinary individual with their own unique factor. somebody out of the box, inspirational, creative and with a whole lot of potential...it takes a lot to be nuts with what you do u know!
Does Bandit have the Nut factor?
*drumroll!!!*...Hell friggin yeah!! niggaz a nut fo real!!!
on a scale of 1 to 10 our Bandit sits on a chilly 8!! he brought it through the flow, his play on words was mad! the visuals were off da hinges, delivery spanked and I totally loved it and think all the other nuts out there will love it all the same. big ups to you bro.
A crux bless to you for popping in, I hope you'll subscribe and let other nuts know where to find us. If there's any topic you'd like addressed on this blog..be free to shout and lets make this baby what we want it to be!!
See ya next post
Your loyal she-head
